At State Farm, your personal jewelry is covered under your homeowner's insurance policy as long as you signed up for the Personal Articles Policy when purchasing the insurance. In order for a jewelry claim to be approved by State Farm, you must have a photograph of the item as well as a receipt or appraisal documentation, and the item's purchase dates and serial numbers, when available. State Farm also prefers that the jewelry be part of your home inventory list, which is completed at the time of your homeowner's insurance policy.

Step 1

File a police report with your local police station if the jewelry was stolen. While filling out the police report with the officer, give specific information on the jewelry, including the style, such as bracelet or brooch, and any important identification information, such as the item's serial number.

Step 2

Take photographs of the jewelry if the damage was caused by an event such as fire or a natural disaster. Record the date of the occurrence and a general description of what happened to cause the damage.

Step 3

Contact State Farm Insurance to file your jewelry claim. To file a claim online, visit the Claims Center page on State Farm's website, where you can electronically submit a claim, find the contact information for your local office, or look for an update on an existing claim. For a link to the State Farm Claims Center, see Resources.
